Stephen Manson

Expert in Cyber Security

About Me

Let me introduce myself. My name is Stephen Mason, I’m 35 and I’m proud to call myself an expert in cyber security. Born, raised and educated in London, I graduated from King’s College with a BSc in Computer Science and went on to work as a network systems and data analyst at a company in The City before going on to specialise in cryptography in the cybersecurity field. I started up this website to inform as many people as possible about cybersecurity and the measures that can and should be put in place to protect us all when we shop, bank and browse online. Too many people become the victim of cybercriminals today, and one of the main reasons for this is lack of information and understanding about how to stay safe. It’s my goal to ensure that cybercrime becomes a thing of the past so that we can all enjoy a profitable, productive and enjoyable internet experience.

My Childhood Dream

A career in cybersecurity had been my dream and ultimate goal since I was a young child. I watched a movie called “Sneakers” with my family – I must have been about 10 years old at the time – and was fascinated by the possibilities that computers and hacking could hold. Even as a child, I was inspired and started to spend more time finding out everything I could about computer programming. Of course, back then IT wasn’t the advanced industry it is today, but it was an exciting time of progress with the internet just around the corner, and in retrospect I think it was the perfect time for a young person like me to get embark on a career in the field.

E-Signatures

Although more companies than ever before are now going paperless to save the environment, they often encounter problems when it’s time to get a signature for an official document. Typically, the process involves having to print out the document before signing it, sending it off to the second party, having them print it out, sign it and return it before printing it yet again and filing it away. Luckily, this outdated procedure is starting to be replaced by something far better – the e-signature. Here is a list of the most safest and secure live casinos online which are using e-signature. People are spending more and more money online and this requires an active fight against cybercrime.

Banks And ATMs

The banking industry today are having to work harder than ever before to keep up with developments in technology and to stay one step ahead of criminals who are ready to use advanced methods to steal customers’ hard earned money. It’s no wonder then that over the last few years a raft of security measures have been put in place to help improve security at all levels of banking, from withdrawing cash from an automated teller machines to paying for goods over the counter with a debit card. So, just what measures are today’s financial institutions taking to protect us?

Conferences

As part of my role as a cybersecurity expert, I m often asked to speak at events and conferences about my area of expertise. This is part of my job that I really enjoy, since I find it very rewarding to pass on the information that I have gleaned on the subject and also to help inform others about what they can do to protect their customers or to stay safe themselves when using the internet for financial reasons. Some of the conferences that I am speaking at over the next few months include:

My Experience

Today, I run an independent cybersecurity consultancy business, offering advice to companies and major financial institutions. I have provided my services to well known high street banks as well as a host of online businesses which are keen to protect their assets and their customers from internet threats. This experience has put my in the perfect position to give you all the information that you need to know about staying safe online, and ensuring that you don’t become the victim of fraud. In today’s modern world where we are all digital citizens, it’s more important than ever before for everyone to become as informed as possible about the potential dangers and risks of entering personal information online.

The Importance Of Cybersecurity

While many people think I have a fascinating and possibly even glamorous job, I like to think of myself as a protector of others. One of the main problems today is that we are all becoming so comfortable with the internet and with going online for even the most mundane tasks such as checking our bank accounts or buying the groceries that many of us don’t stop to think about what could happen if those personal details or bank account information got into the wrong hands – and it does, surprisingly frequently. Hackers and cybercriminals are becoming more and more ingenious in finding ways around the system, and those of us in the industry need to not just keep pace with them but actually to stay one step ahead so that we can head them off at the pass and prevent them from causing their intended damage. That’s why it’s my mission to inform as many people as possible about the importance of staying safe online, and to give as much information as possible about how companies and organisations are working hard to keep us all protected in today’s online environment.

I hope you enjoy reading my website and find plenty of useful information that helps you to stay safe on the internet.

Electronic Evidence

Electronic evidence, sometimes known as digital evidence, is a term that refers to probative information which is either transmitted or stored in a digital format and which could then be used at a trial or court case. Before digital evidence is accepted by the court, it must be determined whether that evidence is authentic, relevant, hearsay or whether copies will be acceptable or whether the original must be produced.

Online Betting System Security

While most industries are now taking the online security of their websites very seriously, none are taking greater pains to protect their customers than the online gambling sector. Ever since the earliest casino websites appeared on the internet more than two decades ago, protecting punters and, indeed, the casinos themselves from fraud has always been a primary concern. With hackers and cybercriminals becoming ever-more sophisticated in the techniques that they use, it’s no wonder that online betting sites are adopting state of the art security systems.
